Surrender

We were going into battle
To go and take the land
But when we reached the borderline,
some of us went back again
With shields before our hearts,
and a sword in our hand
We came to take our longings
In an enemy-land,
Determined and sure of a cause
To take back what's rightfully ours
We just couldn't take it anymore
Sitting and watching in the gloom
Cause when love burns deep inside of you
then you just have to go
We gave ourselves to a promise
It was sacred, it was true
and we said,
Never ever again
we will follow man-made rules
With faith, and a light shining bright,
and a victorious look in our eyes
With courage and triumph
In sight, with hearts that were pure
And we did fight

Where are you now?
You who never knew what love is
When hope fades away,
and you feel dead inside
You told me you're free,
but the truth is you're in bondage
The look on your face
speaks louder than a million words
Oh lala...
Breaking all the bondage

Surrender... surrender... surrender...

But where are you now?
Callin for help in the wilderness
You're thirsty for more,
but life has been dry and fruitless
How come you're too proud
to ask for your savior?
No place will be safe for you, no,
until the day you'll find Him
Oh, oh
Breaking all the bondage

Surrender... surrender... surrender...

It's like a bird that doesn't know
that the cage is open
It's like a war didn't know
it's already over
Somebody won,
Leave it now
Leave your prison and come out..

Surrender...
